Hey Rupe, that would of been myself & @Allan Ramsbottom it's crazy how quick life can throw a spanner in the works I had every intention of being online for the race but slept beyond my normal wake up time as I had a pretty sleepless night and thought Al would be on anyway but obviously Allan is still experiencing wheel issues.........time to upgrade Al
I'm sure the guys we're more than capable of clicking the server over, but my apologies for not attending guys even if it was to just keep it on time, if nothing else. Hope it was trouble free, and you all had a good one

For anyone interested, here's my perspective of that weird weird race... (apologies for rage, i didn't realise how much weirdness was going on until later)

Joe, sorry for 5:30, I didn't see you at all. Both Audis in this race were invisible.

1:34:15 - my perspective.

 

[Nicolas Redman]

Here is the replay from my point of view. I was apparently invisible which lead to me getting taken out twice. I popped into view at the end of lap 10.

Yeah don't worry about it at all, we've been discussing and sharing replays post race, and it's clear everyone was having weird issues with invisible cars and lag. No hard feels, just obviously a bit confused at the time haha

I hope you are ok Allan and the issue is just racing hard ware! cheers buddy, see you next race

Guys, it was both an amazing race and a true lesson in humility ;-)
I had practice sessions all week to find a solid setup for the race just to find out that the guys upfront easily are running again 3 seconds a lap faster !@#$%

Just a few laps into the race after I had luckily managed to circumvent the carnage that happened after T1 and later in the race when two or three cars magically were strewn left and right in the kitty litters I was in lucky 5th and the four fast ones ahead were nowhere to be seen … literally … gone … poof.

Thanks for the nice battles with Michael, Greg, Dastan and Magnus!
At the end I just had no tires left to continue to defend with the slow laps I was posting. By the time Magnus was on my tail, the tires were down to 60% and I just couldn't make that Porsche any wider than the buttocks of that famous American female entertaineress.

The rest was just keeping it on the track (hardly).

Too bad I only got the tip of better setting up Mugello for low downforce rather then my high downforce setup ;-)
Maybe next time.
